Conflict of Interest
Institutions must file significant disclosures to the National Institutes of Health if they determine financial relationships could affect the design, conduct or reporting of the NIH-funded research. The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

Darwin Health
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)
Dr. Califano is co-founder of a startup company called Darwin Health, and holds (or plans to hold) equity in this non-public company. Columbia has determined that the company’s aims (commercialization of efforts for systematic identification of aberrantly activated gene products within critical tumor checkpoints that drive cancer initiation, progression, and drug resistance) are related to the “N of 1” studies described in Project 3 of this award; that the outcome of this research could affect the company or Dr. Califano’s significant financial interest in the company; and that the design, conduct, and/or reporting of this research could be affected by this financial interest.
Centers for Cancer Systems Therapeutics (CaST)
PROJECT NARRATIVE Columbia Center for Cancer Systems Therapeutics (CaST) will leverage proven methodologies and novel and integrative systems biology approaches to foster a highly innovative framework for the rapid, patient-centric prioritization and evaluation of cancer therapeutic strategies targeting target tumor homeostasis, including single agent and combination therapy.

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.
Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.
ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
